Answer:

x =1 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x−1/5x=x−1

Multiply by 15 to clear the fractions

15(2/3x−1/5x)=15(x−1)

10x - 3x = 15x -15

Combine like terms

7x = 15x -15

Subtract 15x from each side

7x -15x = 15x -15x -15

-8x = -15

Divide each side by -8

-8x/-8 = -15/-8

x =15/8

x = 1 7/8

Which equation represents the line that passes through the points (2, 4) and (1, -3)?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 7x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 3)

m = \frac{-3-4}{1-2} = \frac{-7}{-1} = 7, thus

y = 7x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, 4), then

4 = 14 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 14 = - 10

y = 7x - 10 ← equation of line

Vlada [557]
120 + 90 = 210 points
350 - 210 = 140 OR
   351 - 210 = 141  (if it must be more than 350, you need <em>at least </em>351 points total, or 141 more points, to get a grade B)

A dance floor has a perimeter of 60 meters. The dance floor is 20 meters long. Write an equation to represent the perimeter of t
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

20 meters long and 10 meters wide

Step-by-step explanation:

since the perimeter is 60 and one side of it is 20 then you multiply 20 by 2, 40, to get both sides. Then you subtract 40 from 60 leaving the other two sides as 20, meaning that if you divide 20 by 2 you can find that the width of the dance floor is 10 meters long.
